The Irish Community. Reloaded.

Day 1,114, 13:39 • Published in Ireland Ireland • by The Irish Community
Dear Citizens and Friends of eIreland,

The Department of Community is open for business again after a short break during which time not a whole lot happened other than a minor Civil War and various incursions of Penix, the alliance brought to you by MPP Gold & Google Translate.

This month will see a return of the much-loved eIreland Community Awards and The eIrish Lottery, plus a few quizzes and other activities to keep you entertained. If you are employed in an eUK company, such harmless diversions may help pass the time as you maintain your low productivity.
It is hoped that The Department of Community will not only remain self-financing this month, but be in a position to do some fundraising for the State as we rebuild our proud eNation from the ground up. Play your part.

This is a call to the patriots, the entrepreneurs and the philanthropists out there to come forward and support the activities of the Irish Community. PM this Org, if you would like an acknowledgement of your donation, or if you wish to sponsor a particular event or award.

Which brings me to the launch of the eIreland Community Awards. I have shamelessy plagiarised the following section from one of my great predecessors, Donut.

The eIreland Community Awards

The categories are below and please try to nominate in all of them. If you can't it's fine, but please try. Nominations in one category only are frowned upon but permitted, self-nominations are discouraged but allowed.


Most Trusted Politician

Who of the current or recent TDs/Ministers etc. stands out to you as having fulfilled their campaign promises? Who's been honest and upfront? Who's served eIreland before themselves?

Most Acclaimed Publisher

Whose articles do you never fail to read? Who keeps you informed or entertained, who gets you thinking or explains things you might not have understood nice and clearly? Maybe they do all of the above.

Most Celebrated Soldier

Which of our soldiers stands out to you as one who should be applauded? Maybe they're a great leader, a tireless fighter - maybe they're both.

Best General Manager

Whose company/companies are always well stocked with raw materials? Maybe they stand out for another reason - do they offer any perks you couldn't get elsewhere, or are the wages generous? If you think a general manager deserves praise here's your chance to give it to them.

Newcomer/Up-and-comer to Watch

Who, of level 19 or less, has already made an impression? Are they getting involved already, making their voice heard? Nominate them here.

Irelander of the Month

This can be anyone, for any reason. One Irish citizen who stands out to you as deserving of an award. Maybe they're a trusted poltician, and a great manager, and many other things... maybe they've helped you out when times were hard, or worked hard for the nation. Whoever and for whatever reason this is your chance to get them the attention they deserve. For this category a brief explanation of why you're nominating them would be greatly appreciated.

Loveable Rogue

They're mischief but you love them anyway, or they stir the pot without actually doing harm. Does this sound like someone you know? Please nominate them for this one.

Lifetime Achievement Award

Prior winners may not be nominated again.
Similar to Irelander of the month but nominees for this award should be people who throughout their eLives have stood out. They may not have constantly held positions of power but maybe they always were there to help you, maybe they turned your political party around, maybe they mentored you to greatness but all this over the longer term. All nominees for this award should have a citizen account at least four months old as of the day nominations open.

Nominations should be sent to this account as soon as possible but definitely before Day 1122.

The next article will relaunch the eIrish Lottery.

Please vote & sub this article, and friend this Org.

Yours,
James Keiller
